trusty tahr upgrade system error, cups based.

[mynameisprivate]

DIST-UPGRADED to trusty tahr, what a mess. Previously fine-working auto-loaded canon printer, now toast. Annoying sys error, like others complain but diff. details as follow, hand typed best I can.
Is it possible, linux is having viruses now? Keep asking me to sign into keyring; fix online did not solve.
Afraid to sign in, as its similar to a windows virus popup, etc. Signs of browser virus, transposer of type, only in browser window typing/addy bar, all spelling jumbled in pairs. Even after purging/reinstalling chrome.
Notice the below, says no log of upgrade, i did dist-upgrade, so should be there. 13.04 worked fine with printer. ....

thinking apps, as keep failing weird errors, purged openshot, gimp, chromium-browser; reinstalled, all 3 bizarre problems. No effect.
still have the typo backwards spelling-affecting thing similar to virus, tho browser now fully replaced.
sys: dell latitude d620 amd64, running upgraded to trusty tahr;

no google info, others similar, but not identical cups origin:

ubuntu sent email, choose "package" to update this bug.... Yer making this real hard on newbies. States to me, Trusty or Trusty Tahr, or 14.04.1 are not published in ubuntu? I dont get it. what do you mean, package?
improve your sys for newbies.

[mynameisprivate (darthnexinor)]

sys not letting me upgrade bug to reflect trusty tahr edition.

[mynameisprivate (darthnexinor)]

your bug bot SUX.
went to update bug, PACKAGE TRUSTY, or TRUSTY TAHR, or 14.04.1 --
your sys retardedly says, no such ubuntu package exists?

Improve your sys. A newbie cannot fathom all this crud.
Nobody on windows, is going to go for ubuntu, when each upgrade screws up
all the work youve done or working out of box prior.
